Abstract

Information related to a structure of a multilayer printed circuit board, a physical constant and a mesh is input (Step S701) to generate an equivalent circuit model of the multilayer printed circuit board (Step S702). A transfer matrix is generated with an LSI power source terminal mounting candidate point of the uppermost layer as an input and an LSI power source terminal mounting candidate point of the lowermost layer as an output (Step S703) and the transfer matrix is converted into an impedance matrix (Step S704). Here, a first LSI mounting point is input (Step S705) to select an optimum LSI mounting point (Step S706) and the optimum LSI mounting point and the remaining LSI mounting candidate points are sequentially output (Step S707).

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

Enables effective power source system design for multilayer printed circuit boards with multiple power source-ground planes by identifying optimal LSI placement that minimizes noise interference and voltage fluctuations, enhancing the performance of LSIs and the overall power source system.

Problems solved by technology

Along with speed-up of electronic equipment, the problem of power source system noise of a multilayer printed circuit board mounted with an LSI becomes conspicuous.

In particular, resonance generated between power source and ground planes of a multilayer printed circuit board which is derived from power source system noise causes a power source voltage on the LSI side to fluctuate largely to degrade properties of the LSI.

The above-described conventional technique, however, has the following problems.

Another problem is that because the technique copes only with a case where one pair of power source-ground planes exists, in actual printed circuit boards, it is not applicable to an actual multilayer printed circuit board having a plurality, two or more, of pairs of power source-ground planes.
